I'm trying to revive the scene in Chicago with our monthly tournaments. We've seen a steady decline every month but i'm hoping that changes this month since we removed the limit on number of different games you can compete in at the event. Our upcoming event is this Sunday September 7th at The Gaming Goat in Schaumburg, IL. More info can be found on the event page here

And the power ranking which we use for seeding can be found here.

@ Events2Compete Events2Compete I'd love to go, but it's super far away. Does anyone come from the Chicago Loop area that I can get in contact with?

Basically, what would be a 40 minute car drive for me is a 3.5 hour trip because I have no car. =(

We have a lot of players coming from the loop. I'm offering rides to players that are going to the Palatine or Schaumburg metra station. Feel free to post on the Facebook event page or Chicago Melee group page to see if anyone is attending near you. Or if you want to take the metra and want a ride let me know.

Thanks! I made my post, hopefully someone can hook me up. I'm gonna have to pass on the Metra though. I was super excited about this event because it wouldn't be a super long trip. I'd gone to some MW tournaments a couple years ago and they were weekend long excursions due to travel, and it was just really stressful and unpleasant for me. =(
